Swalwell suspends campaign for California governor after sex claims...

Rep. Eric Swalwell announced on Sunday, April 12, that he is suspending his campaign for California governor after several women accused him of sexual assault and misconduct. "I am suspending my campaign for Governor. To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I've made in my past. I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made - but that's my fight, not a campaign's," Swalwell said in a statement on X. The announcement comes after several politicians withdrew their support for the congressman and called on Swalwell, a Democrat, to drop out of California's gubernatorial race. Last week, the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN reported allegations of sexual assault from an ex-staffer. CNN also reported on sexual assault and misconduct by the other three women. Swalwell had denied the allegations. This is a developing story. Follow @USATODAY for additional updates.
